The journey starts from the Titanic

Song Ziwen really didn't like his elder brother Sheng Enyi, who lost a lane in a night of gambling.

"Although Sheng Laoqi is a little arrogant, but he is a smart man, there is nothing to say about this." Song Ziwen said.Now that the Sheng family has lost power, it is not as good as before. The old lady Sheng is still wise. Seeing that Song Ziwen has a bright future, she is determined to find a backer for the Sheng family. Otherwise, if she dies, the Sheng family will immediately separate.

Under the urging of the old ladies of both parties, the marriage of Song Ziwen and Ms. Sheng Qi has been implemented and they are ready to get married at the end of the year.

"That's good! It's a pity that we can't keep up with your wedding." Situ Nan smiled.He thought of Sister Song Yu...

Soon after leaving William Garden, Song Ziwen met Yu Mingyu, his deputy sent by Situ Nan, a 24-year-old man with glasses and a gentle face, who was responsible for the production and management of the Hanyang Iron Factory.

"I am going to kill a group of people at the Hanyang Iron Plant, including those foreign technical experts who are self-reliant on their skills. Can you guarantee that there is no problem in technical production?" Song Ziwen said straightforwardly.

"No problem. I have prepared a management team. I have conducted research on Hanyang Iron Works before. I am confident that Hanyang Iron Works will reignite within a month."

Yu Mingyu said.After graduating from the Department of Mining and Metallurgy of Peking University, he went to the University of California to study.Before the establishment of the University of William, California Iron and Steel Company and Cummins under Situ Nan had a good relationship with the University of California and cooperated in many projects. Yu Mingyu was also fortunate to participate in it. He is the key Chinese technical talent cultivated by Situ Nan.

He has a close relationship with Xu Zhouyang, the president of Cummins. He has been internships at Cummins Power Company, California Steel Company and other companies, and he was also sent to the Philippines to prepare for the construction of steel plants, so he cannot be troubled by technical matters.

"Really?" Song Ziwen looked at Yu Mingyu excitedly and asked, "Why didn't Situ Nan tell me this?"

"Perhaps he is too busy? I don't have time to bother about such trivial matters." Yu Mingyu smiled and promised: "As for the level of my team and me, I will know then. Anyway, you won't be disappointed."

Seeing Yu Mingyu's confidence, Song Ziwen nodded, saying: The talent recommended by Situ Nan is really big, um, this Yu Mingyu should have the ability, can't he dare to go to Haikou?

After talking with Yu Mingyu, Song Ziwen was very satisfied with Yu Mingyu's cultivation, professionalism and knowledge.

Yu Mingyu also has good management skills. Before the acquisition of Hanyang Iron Works, Situ Nan ordered Yu Mingyu to organize his own management team and wait for the call at any time.

Song Ziwen did not expect that Situ Nan prepared such a generous gift for himself. With the help of Yu Mingyu, Song Ziwen became more confident in reorganizing the Hanyang Iron Factory.

"Okay! I'll wait and see! I hope you and I will cooperate to reignite the fire of hope for China's steel!" Song Ziwen stepped forward and held Yu Mingyu's hand, feeling excited.

He didn't know that in history, the former Daxin Iron and Steel Plant that Yu Mingyu and others founded the Shanghai Heavy Machinery Company was an important figure in the development of modern steel in China.

Song Ziwen took up the post and changed from an unwelcome English secretary to Hanyang Iron Factory's talker. Many people who once looked down on him secretly worried, thinking that when Song Ziwen was exiled to Hanyang, he didn't make good. Fate?

It's no use cuddling.As soon as Song Ziwen arrived in Wuhan, he began drastic reforms, expelling all the people who had corpse positions and vegetarian meals out of the iron factory, and at the same time rectified finances, severely liquidated the corrupted moths, recovered the stolen money, and sent them to prison.

Song Ziwen's bloody cleansing of the Hanyang Iron Plant's management greatly shocked a group of people who had different ideas.Yu Mingyu also began to strictly rectify the technical production of Hanyang Iron Works.Once he took office, he unceremoniously dismissed the technical experts sent by Japan.

Neglected workers and foreign experts with self-respect for their skills became the objects of his rectification and were also swept out by him.Under his rigorous assessment, some half-barreled so-called experts also left the Hanyang Iron Factory griefly.

For those foreign experts who work hard, they have been promoted and their treatment has been improved. Most of them are Germans. The German economy is not good. Therefore, the German technicians working in Hanyang Iron Works cherish this job and admire them. Yu Mingyu's technology.

Chapter 134 Hanyang Rebirth (Part 2)

As the saying goes, severe medicine is given!For the bankrupt Hanyang Iron Works, no matter how drastically reformed, it will not be excessive.

I revisited the old place and came to the Hanyang Iron Factory again a few years later. The huge iron factory is no longer the original prosperous fire. The blast furnace standing by the Han River did not know when the fireworks were extinguished, and even the weeds on the side of the road went to the road. Sticking out in the middle, leaving only a broadband path that can only accommodate one person.

Song Ziwen walked forward in silence, followed by Yu Mingyu and a simple white man with wrinkled clothes.This white man is a German expert from Hanyang Iron Factory, named Lu Bai. He has been to China since Zhang Zhidong's time. He has always been full of affection for this iron factory and he will never leave him. He is one of the few foreign experts left.(Partly gone, partly cut by Yu Mingyu!) Lu Bai silently looked at the tall figure of the iron furnace, and when his eyes fell on the two vigorous young people next to him, there was something of hope in his eyes.

"These four 30-ton Martin furnaces were built by Li Weige, the former head of the Hanyang Iron Works. When I was sent here by Sheng Enyi, the fourth Martin furnace was just completed. When it was completed, the colorful flags were flying and the sky was noisy. , I didn't expect it to be so quiet now!" Song Ziwen said with emotion.

"Song, although these stoves have been stopped for a while, some workers and I have been doing maintenance work, and they can still be used. As long as the funds and personnel are well equipped, we can ignite all these stoves in the shortest period of time." He is fluent in Chinese.

"That's right." The workers in the factory are now cleaning the delivery room and refurbishing the machinery and equipment. Because Lu Bai and the others have protected the machinery relatively well, they can start production only by updating some parts."Yu Mingyu self-reported.

Although Hanyang Iron Factory has a special meaning, Yu Mingyu's feelings are far less profound than Song Ziwen and Lu Bai.What Yu Mingyu wants most now is to clean up the iron factory and put it into production. After the iron factory is on track, he can continue to conduct technical research and strengthen the iron factory's technical force.

"Well. A lot of people are watching here now, so the iron factory must start as soon as possible." Song Ziwen said.After speaking, he walked back to his office.

At this time, many workers in the iron factory were already at work. Under the guidance of technicians, they were busy cleaning up, inspecting machines, and repairing weeds outside.

Seeing Song Ziwen coming, these workers quietly gave up the road, their eyes full of awe.

Because for these simple workers, this new and overly young boss is an out-and-out "Hammer."Song Ziwen, the original manager of the Hanyang Iron Factory, was coldly purged out, and many people went to prison.

Seeing the embarrassed look of the "adults" who were still domineering not long ago, the workers who were exploited and bullied by them let out a sigh of relief.

In their hearts, the new boss who was able to hold the group of snakes and rats at once was very courageous, and at the same time secretly warned themselves that they must not hit the muzzle of King Song.

Seeing the hard work of the workers, Song Ziwen smiled in his heart, the effect of Liwei is not bad.

Although these workers are very hardworking, they lack a certain temperament, which makes them less interested.

what is it then?Song Ziwen thought for a while, and immediately understood that those workers lacked vitality!After too many setbacks and time, these people naturally settled with twilight.

Song Ziwen frowned slightly and said in his heart: After rectification and management, the next step should be the workers' turn.

Now the financial and management power of the iron factory is in the hands of Song Ziwen. After replacing key departments such as personnel and finance with people he brought from Shanghai, he promoted a group of middle and lower-level managers from the original workers or technicians.

However, talented people are still not enough. For this reason, Song Ziwen transferred a group of students from the technical school affiliated to the iron factory and supplemented them to the iron factory. While doing apprenticeships, they learned technology from experts.

This move was appreciated and supported by Yu Mingyu.Under Yu Mingyu’s suggestion, the iron factory advertised in newspapers in Shanghai, Tianjin and other places to openly recruit all kinds of talents from the public, hoping that talents who are interested in saving the country from industry will join the Hanyang Iron Factory.

Sure enough, many people came to apply. After strict assessment, Hanyang Iron Works recruited a group of outstanding talents, which can fill the vacancy left by the management after Song Ziwen was fired.

When Han Yeping Company was in its heyday, there were more than 7,000 employees, of which two-fifths were in the Hanyang Iron Plant, and there were 3,000 employees, large and small.

Over the past few years, some of them have left, and there are still more than 2,500 people left.However, there are more than 2,500 people left, and at least 500 people are redundant.

After being cleared out, the employees of Hanyang Iron Factory suddenly shrank one-fifth!

Many of them are at the administrative level. In addition to the related households who came in around them, they were more than successful, and after being purged, they were unwilling.

"Damn, Song Yan Wang is so cruel, he clearly won't let us live!" someone said.Those who gathered around him were one of a group of frustrations.

"Yeah, we must not catch it with one's hands, the big deal will die." Someone said.

"If the iron factory is scrapped, it is scrapped. Does Song Ziwen have the ability to save it? Can Zhang Zhidong and Sheng Xuanhuai fail to do it? Can a Shanghai guy like him do it? Pooh!" someone said.

"Daye Iron Mine said that as long as we embarrass Song Ziwen and drive him and his minions away, Daye will purchase the iron factory and then let our officials resume their duties." Someone said.

"Are the Japanese people so kind? But why don't you help them if we go back to the past?" Someone hesitated.

"That's right! Mr. Saito said, as long as we embarrass Song Ziwen, even if it fails, Daye will ask us. Don't the boss fight the West!" someone said again.

Undercurrent surging!A small conspiracy is unfolding.On this day, Song Ziwen was sitting in the office uneasy, his eyelids were always picking, and suddenly he heard a strong explosion.

That was the direction of the rolling mill. When Song Ziwen arrived, he saw a few blood-stained workers rushing out. The workshop was already on fire.

Fortunately, it was discovered in time that the fire did not spread and was extinguished by the workers who rushed over.

Looking at the darkened workshop, Song Ziwen looked gloomy.His face was dark and dirty, and his eyes flickered, like a beast trying to eat people.

"Is the loss serious?" Song Ziwen asked.

"Fortunately! Several machines were blown up, but the key equipment is still intact. After the new equipment is replaced, production can continue." Yu Mingyu said with joy.
